thies OF the public, has given notOriety to this

reasoning of the court in that case; that on
the contrary they appeared to be wholly ilIog-

sell, and therefore to compel the importer to
buy license to sell his goods was as lawful
as to compel the man to whom he sold them
to do so.

Utterly Untrue.

The statement published yesterday
that the brakemen on the Southern
Pacific are dissatisfied with the man.
ner in which they are treated by As
sistant Division Superintendent Muir,
must have emanated from some man
who has been discharged for incompe-
tency. There is absolutely no trouble
amongst the brakemen. Mr.. Muir is
a great favorite, is not overbearing,
and there will be no halt called by the
men in the yard. Such statements

Prof. stamm designed.

Prof. Stamm, who for some time
past has been the organist at the
Cathedral, has resigned owing to the
press upon his time from other mat
tiers. Prof. Stamm's resignation is
causing great deal of regret in the
musical circles, and especially with
the choir, the members Of which are
certain that they will not be able to
obtain as efficient a leader. The music
at the Cathedral under his direction
has always been the pride of the city,
but it is feared now that it will lose
its prestige.
